good morning, america. this morning, prime time showdown. the president and the speaker of the house take the debt standoff to our living rooms. >> we can't allow the american people to become collateral damage to washington's political warfare. >> and the sad truth is that the president wanted a blank check six months ago, and he wants a blanank chk today. >> just one week from a deadline that could cripple our economy are american families already paying the price? the maid and the money man. all the reaction to our exclusive interview with the now very public woman at the center of the sexual assault case. new details. new questions this morning about her story. massive menu makeover. they overhaul their happy meals. is it making your kids healthier? we'll ask mcdonald's ceo why

they're really doing this now. and dangerous waters. the 6-year-old attacked by a shark. little lucy will join us and tell us her brave story of survival. good morning, everyone. i wish you could have heard george's reaction when he saw little lucy. she is so sweet. we'll also talk to one of the teens attacked in the alaskan wilderness. what it's like to come face to face with a grizzly bear. >> what a story that is. eight feet tall, almost a thousand pounds but did live to tell about it. but let's get right to that showdown over the debt ceiling. one week away, the stakes so high because if no deal is reached america stands to lose our aaa credit rating.

some analysts have already concluded that some kind of downgrade is inevitable and could hit families with mortgage payments and lower 401(k)s, other big costs. jake tapper and jon karl have been tracking it. let's start with jake. >> reporter: last night aftete their primetime addresses, house speaker john boehner was overheard saying he didn't sign up to go mano a mano with the president of the united states after the president called for congress to compromise. the president spoke sternly to the american people last night blaming house republicans, especially freshmen, for holding up a debt deal. >> the only reason this balanced approach isn't on its way to becoming law right now is because a significant number of republicans in congress are insisting on a different approach. >> reporter: house speaker john boehner responded by saying that the president wants to continue his rampant spending. >> the president often said we need a balanced approach, which in washington means, we spend morerend you pay more. >> reporter: right now there a a two competing bills, to raise

the debt ceiling and reduce the deficit. a house one that likely cannot pass the senate and a a nate one that cannot likely pass the house. both raise the debt ceiling, cut more than $1 trillion in spending and do not raise taxes but the senate one raises it through 2013 while the house one only raises the debt ceiling until next spring meaning we'd go through this debate all over again. the president has made it clear he wants to bring the fiasco to its conclusion now in a bipartisan way. >> the american people may have voted for divided governme but they didn't vote for a dysfunctional government. >> reporter: economists say it will not be resolved, a mortgage would shoot up. you'll have to pay more. the stock market could dive. perhaps by as much as 9% to roughly $800 billion. some of it from your retirement savings. with an estimated loss of almost $10,000 from the average 401(k).

>> so there's some of the costs. let's bring in jon. the speaker said no blank check for the president, but it's not clear that he has the votes to get his plan through the house. what's the latest on that and what's the fallback plan if he doesn't? >> reporter: they don't know if they have the votes yet. this is a tough vote for boehner because a lot of tea party conservatives already think they've sacrificed too much. republican leaders are confident they have the votes and say the president's speech helps them because they can go to conservatives and say, you see the president doesn't like it, it must be a good thing. as for plan b, george, i don't get the sense they have one right now >> that's the same sense i get from the white house. the president calling for compromise last night, but what he's really hoping is republicans cave on this short-term debt ceiling and get him something through the election. >> reporter: white house officials are hoping the senate republican leader, mitch mcconnell, will be able to convince house speaker john

boehner to pass something in the house that can also pass the senate, something that can bring the debt ceiling vote through 2013. >> but this is likely to go right down to the wire next week working all through the weekend. i know both of you will be on top of it. robin, again, they said some the rating agencies say the downgrade will come anyway. >> going down to the wire. i think the general public is like, you can't get something done before that. >> that's right. >> all right, , orge, thanks. now to more of our exclusive interview with the woman who has accused one of the most powerful men of sexual assault. will her extraordinary move to go public, will it help or hurt her case? >> i want to let people know the truth. it's so hard for me. i don't -- i never want to be in public. >> reporter: today nafissatou diallo, a 32-year-old hotel maid

and immigrant from guinea, west africa, is a very public figuring. she said dominique strauss-kahn, one of the most powerful men in the worm, former head of the international monetary fund sexually assaulted her. did you ever agree to haha sex with this man? >> no. never ever. i never see him before. i see him as a naked man. i see him attacking me like that. >> reporter: investigators initially believed her story. strauss-kahn was arrested. >> under american law these were extremely serious charges. based on the grand jury's determination that the evidence supports the commission of nonconsensual, forced sexual acts. >> reporter: but this morning there are continuing questions about diallo's now-public account that strays from her

initial report. according to "the new york times" she told her rape counselor that he was violent during the attack but in her description now she says he was much more vocal. >> i was like, stop, stop, don't do this. when i say i don't want to lose my job, he says, no, you're not going to lose your job. you're not going to lose your job and he said you're beautiful. >> reporter: she addressed other inconsistencies and said she was in the hall when he left but others say she went back to his suite. she said she cannot read or write and said it was a misunderstanding. >> i opened it for a second and everything was clean. i told them that. >> you think it was just a misunderstanding. >> i think it's a misunderstanding. >> reporter: she also admitted to lying on her tax records and about details of a rape in new guinea that

helped her get asylum. >> doesn't this man didn't tryry to rape me. this is not the same thing. >> reporter: with a hearing scheduled for next week, the big question now, will prosecutors press forward with the case? >> both as a former prosecutor and judge, you deal with so many witnesses who have terrible backgrounds s d have lied, it doesn't mean they're not telling the truth about the incident they're testifying about. the problem, of course, is convincing a jury. so let's bring in dan abrams. good to have you back, dan. you said yesterday that you don't believe this will change the d.a.'s thinking about whether or not to move forward. do you still feel that way? >> i think it will put pressure on the d.a., public pressure. remember, when the district attorney brings a case, it's the people of the state of new york versus the defendant so what the people of the state of new york think matters. but my concern is that the prosecutors wrote a note to the defense team that basically said not only did she lie on her tax forms, not only did she lie on her asylum application but about a previous rape and the grand

jury and to us and i think with that attitude going in, it's very hard to imagine how the prosecutors move forward. >> even saying that, if they don't pursue the criminal case, it doesn't always necessarily mean they don't believe she's telling the truth about the account but believes they don't think they can win. >> yeah, absolutely. there could be certain prosecutors who say i believe her, i believe something happened here. i simply don't believe we'll be able to prove this in a court of law, prove it beyond a reasonable doubt, the very high standard in a criminal case. >> if the person still wants their day in court, it seems like some look at it and say the d.a. is more concerned about their won-loss record instead of having the case heard. >> that's a fair point except the criminal justice system doesn't work on a moral compass but a legal compass and it's not just a question of what is right and wrong but what you can prove in court. he -- which is why we also have

the civil courts. it's not just about money. that's the way two individuals resolve disputes in our system and become two individuals battling in court over what happened. >> and strauss-kahn could testify in a civil suit and not in a criminal case. >> right, criminal case right away he doesn't have to testify against self-incrimination. depending on where the criminal allegations stand in a civil case, remember the o.j. simpson case, for example, he had to testify. why? because the specter of a criminal case didn't exist anymore. >> dan, i know you're staying on top of this. >> you are too, a special edition of "nightline." >> the maid goes into a full account of what she says happened in the hotel room and addresses the inconsistencies in some of the things she said. >> now we have a story that everyone should know about. you would think a tax holiday on airline tickets that's in effect would mean lower ticket prices.

think again. ryan owens is at the dallas/ft. worth airport with details and when fliers find out about what is going on, they get steamed. >> reporter: hold on to your hat. we know how much you love baggage fees and change fees and how about the fees to talk to an actual human being? well, get ready. they're about to pour more salt into that wound. the airlines just got a huge tax break. since washington can't get its act together the faa is partially shut down, no one to collect that long list of taxes hidden in your tickets. so, of course, those airline executives are giving you a tax break too, right? actually, they raised ticket prices and pocketed the difference. >> instead of going into consumers or the government's pocket the whole amount is going into the airline's pocket. >> rick seany runs f farecompare.com. >> airlines rank below customer

satisfaction so the guy that has your taxes is not going to to give them to you anyway. >> reporter: perhaps the airlines were hoping no one would notice. how much was your ticket. >> about 33 of that, you're due a refund today. >eporter: we hit the airport to make sure they did. >> it's not right. >> if they cannot collect the tax those charges shouldn't be on there. it's not fair to the flying public. >> reporter: the airlines stand to make a mint on this, $200 million a week at the peak of the summer travel season. take a family of four flying this morning f from stlouis to l.a. for their big beach vacation. they paid $1,200 for the tickets and should get nearly 200 of it back. that can buy a lot of sunscreen. okay, so if you're like that family and you're flying between last saturday and until this whole thing in d.c. is resolved you are due a refund. so what do you do?

first of all, make sure you hang on to your receipts and all other materials, e-mail your airline. right now we're not sure if the airlines will pony up the money or the irs will have to. that's one of the many things still being sorted out in d.c. >> i am taking notes because we're take the family to a family reunion this weekend. >> that's why you were paying close attention. >> exactly. >> more so than usual. >> that's a lot of money. that is a lot of money. let's get to the news and begin in norway where authorities say they may now charge anders breivik with crimes against humanity which wouldldarry a maximum 30-year sentence. this morning his lawyer said that breivik appears to be insane. he confessed to friday's oslo bombing that left 76 people dead. abc's miguel marquez bring us one survivor's life and death account of what happened. >> reporter: kristoffer nyborg didn't think anyone would survive andede behring breivik's rampage. >> i was sure this is the end of my life.

>> reporter: panicked kids barricaded themselves into a room. fear written into their faces. a life-or-death decision nyborg told the group of 35 teens he was with, swim. about 25 did. 10 didn't. when nyborg was 100 yards out, he looked back. >> i saw his rifle and he pointed it at the kids who were still at the shore, the kids that were too afraid to swim. and then he executed them. >> reporter: this picture may capture that very moment. breivik on shore murdering children, one appears to beg for mercy. ♪ >> reporter: the horrors of these attacks bringing norway together. for "good morning america," miguel marquez, abc news, oslo. meanwhile, the postal

>> i heard it was a little bit more wild and a little bit more intense so i jumped on an opportunity. >> reporter: spotting wildlife along the way like this black bear but their adventure was about to take a frightening turn. >> we hiked about four miles and we were hiking in a stream. the first person started screaming and yelling "bear." so we all turned around and ran. the most vivid, i remember running looking behind me and you're seeing this huge like snarling grizzly bear like five feet behind me. >> reporter: the bear attacked 4 of the 17 teenagers in the group including victor martin who says the grizzly was enormous. >> easy eight to nine feet by 800 pounds. >> reporter: he fought it off kicking with everything he had. >> right in the middle square right in the middle of the face. >> i had this big old chest wound and i was trying to hold my ribs because i could see blood coming out when i was

breathing and i could hear it. they took one of the garbage bags and wrapped around where my lung was to put plastic over it to create an airtight seal. >> reporter: what was going through your moment? >> i'm going to die. i'm going to college, i have a family, i have friends at home. >> reporter: after more than eight hours of waiting a rescue helicopter finally arrived. >> i think if it had been a little deeper into my brain or head or neck, i wouldn't have made it. i'm extremely lucky. i'm so lucky. . >> the will to live. so blessed. >> boy, he sure is. thanks, abbie boboreau, for that. coming up, meet little lucy, the 6-year-old girl who escaped from a shark. and big news in the head of the world's largest restaurant

shark so i ran over to her and at this point not -- it hadn't really crossed my mind she had been bitten. i just wanted to get her and her sister out of the water. >> you called to your husband craig. you were out further. >> i was out a little bit further but pretty close still. >> what was going through your mind when you saw this happening. >> as i ran over and jordanad the wound covered pretttty welle got her up on the beach and i had jordan move her hand and basically the entire lower leg from about the midcalf down just sort of like played itself open, laid open and i was able to see e extent of this wound and it was a pretty significant wound and i noticed there was an arterial bleed there. >> lucy, you are such a brave little girl. can you tell us what does it feel like when this was happening? >> it felt like it -- like it

win over brazil in the recent world cup but i could be like hope, hope solo, the wonderous u.s. women's goalili >> what, what? >> water polo. what do you want? it was sad. >> so, lara, they say in baseball a catcher's gearre the tools of ignorance. as i found out yesterday, these mighty soccer equivalents. >> did you play as a kid. >> i did and i played a little goalie actually, as well. i think i might have been a little rusty. see, to explain the pk just so you know there was a camera in the upper corner. you can almost see it there and admittedly i was aiming for it as becks told me, let everything get out of your head. don't overthink this, and as you know and maybe america is learning, asking me not to

overthink something is -- >> certainly going to guarantee that we overthink. all right. well, everybody, you can see becks and the rest of his all-star teammates take on their old team, manchester united. that is worthy of a -- sitting in a bar somewhere, enjoyable moment happening on espn2 tomorrow, 8:30 eastern and nice jojo >> thank you. from women everywhere we want to say, no, thank you. you got beckham on. coming up next, we are a food network star making pizza in an interesting way.

okay, so josh worked up an appetite from that soccer. we'll help him and give you terrific summer dish ideas. executive chef at the supper club in new york. we've got great dishes here today and some great utensils, as well. i love this. >> i love when people do that. will you crush that a little bit? >> i'm opening it up. >> let me go to that. >> oh, my god. you have some real muscle there. i like it. >> but it didn't work. let me try it again. >> one more time. >> can you feel that pressing? >> what's the idea? >> mixing all the spices together and breaking them up. when you eat it you get all the pieces in your teeth and all through the meat to give it that extra dining pleasure.

so -- >> we're using it for the steak. >> we have brown sugar. coriander, black pepper, a little salt, all in equal parts and mix that together and you literally rub it on the meat, right? and you can let this sit. you can do it hours in advance or days. >> so no oil, sort of a dry rub. >> no oil or anything else. what happens is, you put it on here. when you want to cook it, you literally -- that's when you brush it with a little bit of the oil. and this is skirt steak, such a great -- >> so much flavor. >> cheap steak. not expensive. >> how do you get it tender? >> one of the ways is put this rub on it and let it sit on it and pop it on the grill. another way is if you want to marinate it and put things like vinegar and other stuff to tenderize it and then something in the slicing really helps you out. we'll see that as we go along. we have some piciced onions, putting together a little

burrito. pickled onion, summer tomatoes with cilantro. give it a stir. i can see you're eyeing this. stir this. a little bit of lemon and a litttt salt and a little bit of olive oil. >> a nice salad there. >> and then once the skirt steak is cooked. >> it cooks pretty fast, right? >> it does. >> look at this. i love i i you can give it a little turn to get that little mark from the grill. >> okay. >> beautiful. you've done this before. >> i've done this before. >> right. and then you can either have this tortilla charred or if you like it -- this was lightly warmed and if you're doing it for your guests in front of them i suggest the softer ones. yeah, right, a burrito bar so you just let them -- so you have these pickled onions, little sweet onion, tomatoes wh cilantro and i took a steak.

one of the other things you can do to tenderize it, our instinct cut this way which is with the grain of the meat. but you can also cut again against it and that actually adds the tenderizer. plus a lot of love, georgege really helps. >> my god, i have a nibbler pop up out of nowhere. >> delicious. there's a little heat to it. >> it's actually pepper you're tasting, red pepper, white pepper and a little bit of brown sugar and cilantro. and sharp cheddar. will you spoon some tomatoes on there? i have a consummate chef. trying to put him to work. oh, my god, we're already chowing down. the onions, when you pickle them in the vinegar, they soften. i kind of made them that way. oh, like an hour or two. >> oh, yes. >> then you just kind of like wrap it like a christmas present. fold it under.

tuck your sheet under your bed. >> i get up at 3:00 in the morning. i'm not thinking about it at 3:00 in the morning. >ou roll it up like that. there you have your burrito. and then here we have one that we popped -- if you would pop that back on the grill and check our steak. the steak looks gorgeous. wow. now it's getting the nice char on it from the grill. >> that is nice. >> kind of remind me of -- >> really yummy. >> look at this. oh, my god. i canno home now. my work is done. >> i can't wait to eat some of this. tell us about the desert. >> we've all been talking about it. >> blackberries -- >> i like the idea of making pizza into desert. excuse to eat more carbs in the summer. a basic dough. blackberries cooked in red wine. yes. cooked in a little bit of wine with homemade ricotta and, come on, a little lemonade. you can add a little vodka to

get the party started. >> i love this. you just -- you can make it yourself with buttermilk cream and milk or run it on with a little lemon zest and sugar. >> good. >> taste that. >> by the way -- >> delicious. >> we weren't supposed to discuss how it t tted but the plates speak for themselves. >> recipes on our website, abcnews.com/gma. >> thank you. abcnews.com/gma. >> thank you.
